Abstract :
The Virtual Centre for Enterprise (VCE) is a virtual education centre for the development of entrepreneurial skills and competencies. The centre provides intensive vocational courses (e-learning modules), for (primarily) employed learners. The VCE provides learners with the opportunity to develop their competencies in small pieces (steps) as part of an overall learning strategy. The providers of e-learning modules are well-known higher education institutions all over Europe, which ensures a multilingual approach while also demanding cultural awareness.
